<p>Do we have already a mean to have rustc emit the debug information as a separate file, if not, would be acceptable to add this feature?</p>

<p>(maybe try asking on <a href="http://users.rust-lang.org" target="_blank" title="http://users.rust-lang.org">users.rust-lang.org</a> for greater visibility)</p>

<p>Users or internals?</p>

<p>well, asking "can rustc do that" is a users question I think, then if the answer is no, "would it be acceptable to add this feature" is internals material</p>

<p>splitting can be done as a post-processing step. is there anything that requires rustc to produce a split debug directly?</p>

<p>The improved link time, assuming it would work like it does for clang and gcc :)</p>
